CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (CPD)

Today it’s widely accepted that to enhance your members’ skills in their chosen field, it’s important to consider Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

Our research into this area has given us a unique and comprehensive understanding of the issues that arise when establishing, running and managing CPD for an organisation. With our support, create, improve and measure your CPD systems.

IARSA CPD Services include:

We guide you on CPD governance frameworks, including the best ways to evaluate the impact of CPD on performance and practice, setting standards, audit and assessment methods.

The IARSA model helps your organisation develop a clear strategy to move towards output-based measurement in all 4 stages of the CPD cycle: Planning, Action, Evaluation and Reflection.

Through our service, determine the appropriate support, assessment and audit systems that meet the needs of your organisation, and the regulations specific to your country.

2. CPD Process Review

We have a wealth of knowledge about the practical elements of designing and running a CPD scheme, thanks to 5 years of working closely with institutions and corporate bodies in the area of CPD. Our expertise enables us to authoritatively review and improve your CPD.

3. CPD ProvisionÂ

CPD can take many forms. Most organisations deliver their own learning – face-to-face or online – or promote, approve or accredit that of other providers. We advise on the approaches you can take.

We can also help you identify the educational institutions, national and international, that best deliver the CPD your members need, and assess ways of delivering this education to your members.

In addition, we support improvements to the way you deliver CPD. We help you to create a format and content that aligns with your CPD strategy, and work in partnership with technology suppliers as well as promoting your offering.Â
